TABLE INSERTS

inserts which give you four possible opening diameters in the
shaper table surface. Use the smallest opening that a particular
cutter will allow. This offers more support for the workpiece and
reduces the amount of chips that can fall into the machine.
The correct spindle opening will also allow any unused portion
of the cutter to remain below the table surface—increasing
operator protection. There are two aluminum table inserts
and one cast iron table insert. The cast iron table insert must
be flush with the top of the table.
To adjust the insert:
1. KEEP SHAPER DISCONNECTED FROM POWER!
2. Remove the three Phillips head screws that hold the cast
iron insert in place.
3. Using a straightedge and a flathead screwdriver, turn
the barrel screw clockwise or counterclockwise to level
the steel cast insert with the table as shown in Figure 9.
4. Replace and tighten the Phillips head screws and inspect
with a straightedge.

ExTENSION WINg

The cast iron wing extends your work surface area to provide
support for larger workpieces.
To install the extension wing:
1. Make sure the contact surfaces are free of dirt or grit.
2. Remove the three 3⁄8-16 x 11⁄4" hex bolts and lock washers
already mounted to the table.
3. Insert the hex bolts with lock washers through the wing and
thread them into the holes at the front of the shaper. Leave
the bolts loose, for now.
4. Raise the wing on one side and make sure it is flush with the
table edge, then tighten the first bolt. See Figure 10.
Note: By raising or lowering the far end of the wing, you can
locate the center of the wing flush with the shaper table.
5. Secure the center bolt.

6. Make sure the wing edge is flush at the first two bolts and that
the bolts are tight.
Note: The end of the wing at the last bolt may not be flush with
the surface of the table. Don't be alarmed.
7. Adjust the wing up or down at the last bolt (Figure 11).
If necessary, use a clamp and some wood blocks to make
the two surfaces flush. Tighten the final bolt when
the two surfaces are flush.

8. Inspect your results with a good-quality straightedge.
9. If the wing is slightly tilted up or down, place some masking
tape along the whole length, between the table and the wing.
Place the tape above the bolts to lower the wing (Figure 12)
or below the bolts (Figure 13) to raise it.
